Start of a plan.

I’m starting to plan more for the nursery.  Friday afternoon, Lisa and I went to Premier Prints to pick out fabric for the nursery.  I’m so thankful she went with me!!  They have so many lovely fabrics that it is almost overwhelming to do it all on your own.  Also it help that Margaret, the lady there who does most of the crib bedding, was there too.  I can’t wait to see how it looks when it’s finished.

Fabric for the crib skirt.  I decided to add in the pink to give it a more feminine touch.  I didn’t want it fru-fru, but needed an accent color.

cribbumper

Fabric for crib bumper.  The white dot fabric is actually chocolate brown, not sure if you can tell that it’s not black. The long lengths of the bumper will be a chocolate brown mickey (you know that really soft fabric with the raised dots) on the inside, then the white/chocolate dotti will be the short ends on the inside.  Just another touch of the pink to tie it in.

Fabric of the curtains.  These are already made and up, but thought to share the it all together.

Fabric for the rocker cushions and curtain on the changing table.  I choose pink to tie it all in. 

The walls are the green in the fabric with white trim.  The furniture is white as well.  I plan on getting chocolate brown baskets to put in the changing table for accent as well.  I believe I will have some of the pink left over and my plan is to cover small canvases with it then paint Zoey’s initials on them in brown as décor.  At first I thought about doing an owl theme, but that seems to be the “it” theme now, so I nixed it.  I just like adding accents and random pieces to it instead of having a “theme”.

I definitely love the fabrics that you chose. They look great all together. I love the pink vine fabric -- much better than a theme I think!
